Ocelot

Ocelot, ocelot where have you gone
Morning is over and noon slouches on
Your stripes could all fade in the poisonous day
When you see the sunlight move out of the way

You prance with the beasts who parade every night
And silently slouch through the forest by light
Don’t be the only one left on the block
Come hide in the herd
And float with the flock

Ocelot, ocelot where are you now
You never listen to me anyhow
You wandered and ambled, you walk now you run
Knowing you’ll bake like a snake in the sun
Ocelot, ocelot where are you now?
Won’t you come out to play?
